How install an external USB wireless adaptor?

Hi Mike7
Do a Google search for:

--- Code: ---ifconfig: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not possible due to RF-kill
--- End code ---
for possible solutions. There is an  rfkill  extension in the repository that you will probably need.

Mike7:
Hi, Rich.

Will give that a try and get back.

Hi Mike7
I presume you have  wireless-KERNEL-tinycore.tcz  installed where the word  KERNEL  matches your kernel version. You can
find your kernel version with:

--- Code: ---uname -r
--- End code ---
You will also probably need  firmware-zd1211.tcz

Mike7:
Hi, Rich


--- Code: ---tc@box:~$ uname -r
3.8.13-tinycore
--- End code ---

mnt/sdb1/tce/optional>
wireless-3.8.13-tinycore.tcz
firmware-zd1211.tcz

The Google search returned many entries with too many complicated and varied results to be useful.

Hi Mike7
What does this return:

--- Code: ---sudo rfkill list all
--- End code ---
